Talk about anti-climatic and ho-hum. Chris Carter and company announced the name of the new X-Files Movie – “I Want To Believe.” This title would be perfect if the focus was on the X-File’s convoluted mytharc, but this is a stand alone monster of the week film so it feels a little off to me. […]

American Idol and Mariah Carey a match made in Hell
Ok it’s about 8:34, I’m going to let me DVR go for another 15 minutes before I start tonight’s train wreck that will be American Idol. It’s Mariah Carey night tonight and one of the truisms of Idol has always been, don’t do Mariah, Whitney or Celine. But tonight Mariah has fallen so low that […]
Lost and Grey’s Anatomy to End Season with Two-Hour Finales!
ABC has just announced that two of its most popular shows, Grey’s Anatomy and Lost, have been given the go-ahead to shoot two-hour finales. In both cases, this means that plot arcs that were severely pruned because of the WGA strike will be given extra room to complete. The news is especially good for Lost […]
Battlestar Galactica: Six of One – The Day After
After a rather ho-hum premiere, Battlestar Galactica seems to be moving back in the right direction. Where He That Believeth In Me tended to rehash the season three finale without adding much to the running story – except for the development of the Starbuck-Roslin situation – Six of One is almost chockfull o’ stuff.
American Idol – What an Inspiration, bleck…
Oh god, gag me. In honor of American Idol Gives Back (which I refuse to watch tomorrow/Wed night) it’s Inspirational song night. Tonight’s report was interrupted by another chapter of my favorite Harry Potter fan fiction being posted, so while it’s begging for me to read it, I’m going to slap this report together in […]
John, Paul, Tom & Ringo – The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder: John Lennon’s Last TV Interview, Plus: Paul McCartney & Wings, Ringo Starr and [huh?] Angie Dickinson!
The day after John Lennon was killed outside his New York home, The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder aired his last televised interview, which had been aired five years previously, along with appearances by journalist Lisa Robinson and Lennon’s producer, Jack Douglas. Interviews with Paul and Linda McCartney and two other members of Wings, and […]
Battlestar Galactica: He That Believeth in Me – The Day After
Battlestar Galactica may be the best SF series, start to finish, ever produced for television. Even so, after sleeping on it, I have to say that the final season opener left me cold. [SPOILERS beyond this point!]
Battlestar Galactica is finally here! Michelle’s Take!
Wow, tonight/today is a big day for me. I get the new Call of Duty 4 maps today and tonight is the premiere of the Final (sort of) season of Battlestar Galactica. Luckily I don’t have to choose between playing COD or watching BSG because the kind folks over at Sci-Fi sent me a copy […]
A Little Dr. King Love
In remembrance of Dr. King, here’s a cool little tribute video from John Legend. Courtesy of the History channel’s upcoming solute. Which airs this Sunday night.
The Ins and Outs of Starbuck: Katee Sackhoff Talks Season Four of Battlestar Galactica!
On Friday, I had the opportunity to take part in a teleconference with Starbuck, herself – Katee Sackhoff, of the Peabody Award-winning Battlestar Galactica. She talked about her reaction to the mind-bending prophecy that Starbuck was a harbinger of doom; which is tougher – love scenes, or fight scenes; who she thinks Starbuck should wind […]
Tin Man: That’s How We Roll In The O.Z.!
Tin Man is the Sci Fi Channel’s re-imagining of a classic work of fiction and its film adaptation. It’s darker, livelier and definitely entertaining, but it’s not your great-great grandparents’ Wizard of Oz.
